Doug,

Thanks for the reply. Immediately after hitting send I found exactly what I was looking for. Don't know why I didn't consider doing a 'man sox' earlier. I must be getting senile. ;)

That said, I altered my initial .gsm files and made them 75% quieter (-v .25). I replaced my loud files with my newer, quieter files and reloaded res_musiconhold.so to no avail. I confirmed the new files *are* quieter, but Asterisk still plays them extremely loud. Do I need to reload a different module, or perhaps completely restart Asterisk to use these newer files?

Thanks,
Jay

Hi folks!

I did notice that sox has a -v flag for adjusting volume, but danged if I can find documentation online that'll tell me what parameter to pass.


Doing a 'man sox' does wonders:

-v volume Change  amplitude  (floating point); less than 1.0 decreases,
greater than 1.0 increases. May use a negative number to invert the phase of the audio data. It is interesting to note that we perceive volume logarithmically but this adjusts
                the amplitude linearly.


So,  this is how I increase the volume on my paging

sox paging.gsm -v 4 /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/outx2.gsm
